@jennifer0726 😊
Thank you for sharing your positive experience. I wish I was able to portal a "transplant nurse group", that would solve my problem. But at Mayo Florida you are assigned a coordinator. (Occasionally she is out and I speak with another coordinator and the "substitute" nurse that I get has been caring and knowledgeable). Which Mayo branch uses the nurse group concept instead of assigned?
If you were me, would you just keep your mouth shut and try to work around it....or try to get reassigned? I want to avoid causing any bad feelings, but I also want to receive excellent Mayo care too. I get jealous every time on Mayo Connect my fellow transplant patients recommends to call transplant. I normally avoid doing it.

@hello1234 I am so sorry you have this experience with post transplant care. Maybe at your next visit or contact you can innocently ask what is the best way to contact someone for help when you have a medical question that is urgent like you had this week. I think asking directly puts the the ball in their court so to speak. Explain your local Dr doesn’t have the answers to transplant specific questions. It’s worth a try. I am at Mayo Rochester. Hugs to you my friend!
